> It's a good starting point, but the copyright assignment issue is not
> the only issue (not even the main one, from my POV).  The main issue
> with NonGNU ELPA, IMO, is that packages there don't necessarily adhere
> to the Emacs coding conventions, are not supervised by the Emacs
> maintainers, and do not have to coordinate their development decisions
> with the Emacs team.  So their integration into Emacs could be less
> seamless than that of packages from GNU ELPA.
